Future Technology Leads Fashion 3D Print Long Skirt Is Light And Elegant.

Recently, a group called "nervous system".

A new achievement has been made to make the 3D printed plastic skirt swing like a real fabric.

The research used a customized software called Kinematics, which combines the latest 3D printing technology with origami technology to maximize the 3D plastic skirt texture close to ordinary cloth, so that the skirt is close and visible.

When we think of 3D printing, we may think of solid objects. They are dead and unable to move. Do you think they can be as light as clothes?

Recently, a design studio called "nervous system" has achieved a new achievement.

The skirt made of plastic is free to swing like a real fabric.

The research used a customized software called Kinematics, which combines the latest 3D printing technology with origami technology to maximize the 3D plastic skirt texture close to ordinary cloth, so that the skirt is close and tangible.

Printing takes two days.

According to the introduction, designers use computer aided design (CAD) instead of traditional clothing method.

The designer first establishes the 3D model of clothing in the CAD program, and then decomposes the model into several triangular patches with different sizes.

The designer can freely control the size, location and quantity of these triangles, and can preview the influence of each change on the shape of the garment.

After the designer is satisfied, the computer program splits these lattices into one garment and presses it to the thinnest. Generally speaking, the weight of the finished product will be reduced by 85% compared with the beginning.

This 3D printing process takes two days.

After coming out, the technicians will sweep away the excess dust and clean and dye the plastic. A beautiful hollowed dress will be completed.

Skirts can be made white or black.

Soft as cotton cloth

Designer Jessica Rosenkranz said this kind of clothing is far more than just making gimmicks.

Unlike other 3D print clothing armor, this dress looks like cotton, which has excellent mobility, softness and comfort.

When the model walks and rotates, the long skirt can flicker and shake freely.

Ensuring clothing's comfort is the top priority.

To know which designs are easy to scratch, Rosenkranz wore jewelry made of 3D printing for weeks.

She first started with the bracelet, then made a belt, and then made a tight coat. After these successful attempts, she began to make a dress.

In the production process, Rosenkranz mainly used the traditional tailoring process, but she was also willing to combine modern technology.

For example, 3D printing will scan the shape of the model in advance, so that the finished product will fit perfectly.

She also added buttons on the hollow of her skirt to make it easier to get rid of her skirt.

She is thinking of how to make the skirt softer, and fold it like ordinary clothes into the wardrobe.

The price is nearly 3000 dollars.

This plan has had an astonishing impact on the design, fashion and manufacturing industries.

"Use 3D printing to make highly folded products and then unfold them, which sounds just like science fiction films."

Rosencroitz said, "to be honest, after working so long in the digital world, the research is still such a complex thing. The most surprising thing is that it really has been completed.

It was compressed so much when it was printed, but now it can be worn on its body, and it can still be plagging and rolling behind you. "

The next thing to do is to increase production speed, and adopt new mechanism and new structure to simulate different clothing texture, such as thick wool and thin silk.

They hope to eventually apply the technology to other areas.

Because the price of the single piece clothing is nearly 3000 dollars (about 18500 yuan), the "nervous system" design room will not consider putting these wearable products on the market.

I hope to reduce the cost first and then sell it to the public.
